Hello im terry martin welcome to the program show us china trade war has just gotten worse u. S. President donald trump has announced an additional 10 percent tariff on 300000000000. 00 worth of chinese imports it comes as beijing and washington are laying the groundwork for a new round of trade negotiations. U. S. President donald trump is ratcheting up the trade war with china and not just annoyed his latest move was announced in a tweet he said on september the 1st the u. S. Will put an additional tariff of 10 percent on the remaining 300000000000. 00 of goods and products coming from china the u. S. Has already impose tariffs on 250000000000. 00 in chinese imports from next month the total will be 550000000000 worth of imports so far china has retaliated with duties on 110000000000. 00 worth of American Goods beijing has also dismissed President Trumps criticism that it broke a promise to buy more u. S. Agricultural products however the president s accusations keep coming were stopping the 3rd of american jobs were stopping there after of so many other things happening including intellectual property. They steal our intellectual property. And Chinese Foreign minister wanganui said the new tariffs were unconstructive fans no way to go about solving a trade dispute thats tracked on for more than a year and a half now talks in shanghai earlier this week ended without progress further negotiations were planned for next month but that was before the white houses latest move. Was talk bit more about this with our Business CorrespondentRob Watts Rob this is a huge escalation in the china american trade dispute was anyone expecting it well its something that President Trump has been threatening to do for a while and what we now have is almost all chinese exports to the United States code by some sort of tariff and the difference between these tariffs and the 25 percent tires that were already on 200 50000000000. 00 imports is that we might actually see americans start to feel the difference because there are those 1st tariffs on industrial items mostly the sorts of things that companies are importing this is going to be on consumer goods 10 percent on consumer goods such as smartphones and clothing so its actually could be a bit more tangible for real americans and theyre actually going to start to feel the effect of this u. S. China trade war. How are markets reacting to his well theyve not reacted well in fact even wall streets reaction was immediately on the negative side the dow ended the day down 1. 2 percent for john was asked to do you expect that to happen you said yes i did not consent to asia where its past being felt most acutely shanghai markets down by 1. 4 percent but actually in hong kong in tokyo theyve gone down by more than 2 percent because they and its even being felt in europe the footsie 100. 00 in london is down by 1. 6 percent so a significant drop so yeah indeed reaction well theres a lot going on in terms of trade right now weve got another dispute want to talk about a trade dispute between japan and south korea has escalated japan has removed south korea from a list of favorite export partners citing security concerns and that could affect exports of a wide range of goods. The move has prompted protests outside the Japanese Embassy in seoul south korean president moon j. N. Said japan was being reckless and threaten Global Supply chains it comes amid a dispute over japans use of war torm more time forced labor. In the you know. Well rob lets find out about this one how we what are the business implications of this move with japan now ratcheting up the trade tensions with south korea so what this means is that south korean businesses to import key materials components from japan may start to find its a little bit harder to do that because the Japanese Companies that export to them again to have to stop seeking approval for those exports to happen at best a chance of the impacts of that will be quite small but it is highly symbolic securely the removing of them from this white list of 27 trusted nations i mean it suggests just from the name that you know trust is being lost weve heard from south korea they say they will stand they respond to japans unfair decision as theyve put it they called it unilateral and obvious very and aggrey be consenting in the past so it has warned that should trade tensions escalate further it will reconsider its intelligence sharing with japan something that would have wider implications particularly for the u. S. Because both of them are allies in the. Conflict i suppose with north korea we just seen an escalation maybe that will have tensions rising all around rob whats from didnt even as thank you so much staying in asia bomb blasts at 3 sites in the thai capital bangkok have left at least 4 people injured the 1st explosions took place during rush hour in central bangkok 2 more blasts were reported at a government complex on the city outskirts thailands Prime Minister has ordered an investigation into the bombings and is currently hosting a Regional Security meeting with top diplomats from the u. S. China and other world powers. Our correspondent floria newish is in the thai capital bangkok florian what more can you tell us about these bomb blasts. Well unfortunately bangkok is no stranger to small bomb incidents so we have seen plight a number of those incidents over the past years most of the times we never were told who the perpetrators were. We dont even know if the officials found people who were responsible for those minor attacks so right now theres a lot of speculation going on and very little confirmed information what we say quickly and what we can say is that there have been 6 blasts at 3 different locations and 4 people house been injured although not majorly injured people house suffered from minor injuries to the skin one person apparently has appears to ear drum they were street sweepers they were cleaning and a Public Transport Service sky change station when days sort of suddenly hit this bomb that went off so as of right now we dont know who was behind it we dont know if the situation is under control there how often sue false alarms following those we confirmed findings of the explosives some of which went off so we have to wait and see if the situation is actually calming down right now now the timing of this florin is also significant i would say this is happening during a very Important International meeting in the city. Yes ozzy on Foreign Ministers of plus the Foreign Ministers of russia china and the us still a lot of big shots are here in bangkok right now rapping out there on sound summit so people are speculating whether this this peace incidents were supposed to humiliate the Thai Government showing the world that the Thai Government is not able to sort of provide for calm and peace during this high level meeting people are also speculating whether it cost to do with the just newly formed cabinet that has pretty much just been sworn in after a very contagious elections that weve seen in march so after 4 years of a military coup so people this is also one line of explanation the 3rd context which might offer some explanation is that there is 8. Under the radar the g. Much situation in the deep south of thailand there are the provinces that are maybe muslim dominated and theyre trying to gain independence from thailands you know majority just thailand but this is all speculation we dont know whos behind it and maybe well never find out whos behind it. And take very much the w. s for you know she in bangkok. Now smaller stories making news around the world today saudi arabia says it will allow women to obtain a passport and travel without approval from a male relative if the reform comes into effect too would be it would further undermine the guardianship system which considers women as equal to children and gives men control over that there have been several recent high profile attempts by saudi women to escape their guardians.

And president sharia both sonora has replaced 4 members of a Commission Investigating disappearances and murders during the countrys dictatorship they include the Commission Head who criticised the move last month a commission confronted both in our own a former army captain on the states role in the killing of that leftist activist in 1974. Youre watching the news still to come. Down the middle of the mayhem the small German Village of bach it turns into the hard rocking capital of the world. The United States has today formally abandoned lend more cold war weapons control treaty raising fears of a new global arms race the demise of the intermediate range Nuclear Forces agreement signals the end of legal limits on the Nuclear Arsenals of the u. S. And russia. If 987. 00 the historic agreement between the soviet union and the United States. And Ronald Reagan signed the i. N. F. Treaty marking a change of course after decades of Cold War Nuclear tension. The root of the tension was this the soviet s s 20 missile a Nuclear Warhead that could strike western europe at short notice. That worried those European Countries on the other side of the iron curtain were well within the missiles reach of 5 and a half 1000 kilometers. The u. S. Response was to deploy its own mid range pershing missiles in europe that was met with protests across the west the demonstrations showed demand for a new direction the result was the i. N. F. Treaty it banned all ground launched Ballistic Missiles with ranges of between 505 and a half 1000 kilometers the soviet union got rid of 1846 intermediate range missiles in the United States about half as many. By 991. 00 a total of 2692. 00 missiles were destroyed. Now president onil trump has officially withdrawn the u. S. From the treaty washington and its nato allies say russia has deployed new intermediate ground missiles that violate the i. N. F. Sternness moscow for its part has also pulled out of the treaty charging that washington has breached the i. N. F. By setting up Missile Defense stations in Eastern Europe the analysts worry a new cold war style arms race could be looming. For more lets bring in our correspondent in brussels terry scholz terry why have the u. S. United states and russia not succeeded in keeping this treaty alive. Well terry its not today that the u. S. Would say the treaty is dead it would allege that moscow violated the i. N. F. Years ago when it started building this Missile System and that basically its not a treaty if only one sided here is to it and it took the us a few years to convince the europeans its nato allies that this is indeed the case and that its more dangerous to continue to follow an accord that isnt working and now all of nato unanimously supports the United States pulling out of the treaty russia has been given many many many warnings until the very last minute and now while some european leaders dont like that the i. M. F. Is dead they understand it now many see the termination of this treaty as a threat to global peace u. N. Secretary general antonio good terrorists had this to say yesterday. And there is a landmark agreement that lies europe and the cold war when you think part of. The world rules i mean variable break or nuclear war and these are likely i. Suppose by i believe. It is the u. N. Secretary general right to be worried are we facing new threats possibly a new arms race. He is right to be worried and hes certainly not alone with no restraints now on intermediate range Nuclear Missiles theres no telling what russia will do and the United States is very likely to come up with a new system to match or best of the Russian Missile that said the United States has said that its aim is to create a new framework to control Nuclear Weapons development that would also include china which has been far and you know unconstrained by any treaty and really working hard on this so while nobody is really happy to see the treaty go. Everyone acknowledges that this really really wasnt working anymore so this is an old treaty the i. N. F. Treaty was signed in the 1980 s. Between the u. S. And the former soviet union can it not be argued that this treaty was actually obsolete especially given the rise of other powers like china and the development of new Weapons Systems that is something the United States has argued and others as well but i think the question here was not whether it needed to be updated and certainly not whether russia needed to come into compliance with the existing treaty but whether it would be better to kill it as you work on creating this new accord this new hope for accord and i think thats what the europeans were uncomfortable with declaring the i. N. F. Defunct but is now thats the deal thats today as secretary general of nato says they simply have to adjust to living in a post i. M. F. World and thats something well be hearing from him later on today gerri thank you so much t w is teri schultz in brussels. U. S. President all trump has dressed thousands of supporters at a rally in ohio true to form trump attacked leading democrats but as the examiner phenomena reports from cincinnati the president stopped short of making any more remarks that could be seen as racially offensive. Diane written things are falling into place right now born and raised in cincinnati she has been a republican for decades she even met her has spent on the party events and stay and read and is an Ardent Supporter of the president s tromp she says there are plenty of reasons for him to get we elect its unemployment as an all time low employment at an all time high the stock market is high which means all of our investment accounts are all very high right now he believes in secure borders i believe in secure borders i think to have a country you have to control who comes in and out of our country in downtown cincinnati the crowds began gathering hours before the rally as they honorary chair woman the Hamilton CountyRepublican Party diane written and showed the arena through at the ip entrance im excited about and excited about it all day it was hard to concentrate on work this morning to get that out of the way so i could be free to enjoy the afternoon usually trump uses his release like he uses his twitter accounts to praise his accomplishments and stupor rate hes opponents last month he attacks Democratic Congress women of color urging them to go back to where they came from and they do more then a year before election day but that doesnt make you know the album and accuse me election thank you. They have a very retrograde right concerned with stability and political correct and that is what the supporters like about it because they see it tells it like it is on like and the other end of it is a democrat lawmakers care more about illegal aliens then they care about their own constituents they put foreign citizens before american citizens they would love to see a guy like Sleepy Joe Biden who has no clue what. There how hes doing. A little in cincinnati tromp attack prominent democrats painting them as leftwing extremists but he avoided remarks it could be criticized as racially charged why you believe that there were no center back chants and he didnt talk about politicians of color very very much yes i we did not want that to cincinnati and i did not want any of that here so there was no negative about that so that was a big plus diane read and was happy with the trump rally in cincinnati he was talking to his crowd here she said at these where he speak.
